I Bought 11 BROKEN PS4 Controllers for $220 - Let's Fix Them!

I Bought 11 BROKEN PS4 Controllers for $220 - Let's Fix Them! These 11 DualShock PS4 Controllers had a bunch of analog stick issues which I showed fixing more in-depth than usual for those who are interested. I also fixed a couple charge port issues, fixed some controllers people took apart to fix and never put back together correctly, and replaced a bad battery.

For drifting sticks you dont usually need to replace them, it's usually a matter of the small white disks inside the green compartments at the side of the analog stick, you simply just remove it, clean the inside of the compartment with rubbing alcohol and put it back together.

[@ThickpropheT]

Glad you made this video. A ps3 controller of mine sustained some liquid damage a while back and exhibited similar readings in the the gamepad settings (readings jumping around rather than staying steady). I tried lots of stuff to fix it, but gave up and replaced the whole motherboard. I didn't try replacing the analog sticks, tho. I wonder if that's the problem. It looks like it would be easier to install the new analog stick module if you wick away the solder after removing the the old one. That way, you can just pop the pins through the holes without having to keep all that solder hot. You also don't have to subject as much of the board to prolonged heat that way, since you can just use an iron to apply localized heat to each pin.

[@f-22r]

the left control is always the problem, it is the one that one uses the most when pressing the stick and moving the lever forward in shooters-type games

[@notinuse3786]

Hey, this is just a tip for anyone that has analogue stick drift problems. So if you open up the two green compartments on the top and sides of the joysticks, inside will be white joystick sensors and all you have to do is replace those and your stick drift problem will be fixed. Just make sure your replace the right ones as the top sensors are what picks up the left and right movement of the joystick and the sensors on the sides are the ones that pick up the up and down movements.

Hi Steve, love your video's. Just was wondering why you replace all the analoge sticks instead of opening them and cleaning the inside with alcohol.

Keep up the good work!

Next time on good condition controllers, before replacing sticks, try to clean flux traces from the PCB. Factories use cheap flux that over time creates a lot of issues such as interference/resistance between pins and that the actual issue. Same happening with Power-A Nintendo and Xbox controllers. I "fixed" loads of controllers this way. Main reason why you MUST clean flux after soldering...
